The use of fine recycled concrete aggregates (FRCAs) is directly linked to the feasibility of obtaining target properties in concrete. Agreement about FRCA’s technical viability has not yet been achieved. In this paper, the properties of FRCA associated with different features of the parent concrete and with the performance of recycled aggregate concrete prepared with them were analysed. The results show that the FRCA paste content is not linked to the compressive strength level of the parent concrete. In addition, the total water-to-cement ratio in recycled aggregate concrete seems to have a greater influence on concrete performance compared with quality and composition of FRCA.pdfengopenAccesshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalconcrete technology & manufacture/environment/recycling & reuse of materialsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleICE PublishingAtribución (Attribution): En cualquier explotación de la obra autorizada por la licencia será necesario reconocer la autoría (obligatoria en todos los casos).
